I will have a chance to measure things out tomorrow, if you don't get a response by then.

Do you need inside height, outside height, or what? Do you only care about how tall they are? What is it you are trying to do?

By the way your English is better than most peoples on here. Some would have typed... "NE 1 NO wat hite teh vlave coer is>"

By Stangnet standards you are way ahead of the curve.

Well here is a deal guys, when i did Heads and cam i bought fox body valve covers because they will clear my 1.6 roller rockers with little grinding and they are aluminum (i polished them like everything else) and on first start i have ticking noise from valve train, i check everything and there is no problem with cleearence and everything is adjusted hows supposed to be ,lifters are good, everything is fine , so i finaly got 1" intake spacer and now i wanna buy some valve covers BUT i don't wanna go to high ,meybe 1/2 to 3/4 taller than stock fox body ones
In same time i think my ticking noise could be that i don't get enough oil on top of rockers because tight valve covers

Thank you guys for helping me out

I have never heard of this problem. I have used grinded stock valve covers for years with roller rockers and never experienced this problem.

I think your ticking problem lies elsewhere.
